Lol yep its hilarious! 

wow this actually hit the news on TV. Sony is probably working to fix this as we speak.

Again, use your brain. The 3DS can't play home console multiplatform games. If someone wanted to play any with friends, where would they go? It's fairly obvious that alot of ninty fans own a PS4 considering all of whining over this.

Hyperbolic. This kind of stuff is normal for all 3. You can't buy a cod game with all the DLC on one console and expect to be able to transfer game progress or dlc over without having to buy/do everything again. That's normal for almost all multiplatform games. People need to stop acting so entitled and get over what's normal. If you were planning on playing it on a certain platform then why grind alot or spend money on the game on a different platform? Because that's pretty stupid.

Well if they didn't buy it for Fortnite, and now they have Fortnite, then why are they complaining? Would Switch owners rather not have Fortnite at all? Isn't having Fortnite and not being able to link to a PS4 account better than nothing? Maybe they should be thankful and not ungrateful. The game is free to play. If Switch owners bought it for its concept, then there is a good chance if PS made a copycat, and you owned a PS4, which you played third party multiplayer games on, then it would make all the sense in the world to buy that hardware. If it was offered and was quite similar in its usefulness, yet didn't have Nin games, and you wanted Nin games, then you can buy a Switch, but that means no cross play or cross accounts for Fortnite between Switch and PS4. It would be your choice, and while you can try and complain, if the answer Epic or PS gives you is no, then the answer is simply no.

If you want studio's like Epic to be able to have complete control over everything, then they need to build their own console, and everyone can buy one for every single studio's games. They all could have their own online service as well, but then they automatically lose some control having to deal with PS and their network/hardware under the TV.

PS investors also see tens of millions. Why? Well because not only are they making money off of Fortnite, but for every single extra PS4 sold because of Fortnite they make money, plus that's potential money coming in from PS Plus and any content from the PS store, as well as physical game sales, DLC or micro-transactions for those games, accessory sales, word of mouth, etc. Epic could have said no to PS and not had this problem but wouldn't have made nearly as much money, or they could make tens of millions and anger some gamers that want to play across multiple platforms. PS no doubt did the math and decided it was best to try and lock down Fortnite and appease its investors. Epic no doubt did the math and decided its investors were more important than the potential cross platform console gamers.

Epic has been outspoken about how its not their fault at all and they can't do anything about it? You mean like how MS said XB1 DRM was physically locked into the console and it couldn't simply be switched off, only to then shortly afterwards flip the switches and turn it all off when nobody believed their BS? PS retains the rights to the software in that box under the TV and the network it connects to. If they decide they want to have Fortnite locked into that network for those who purchase that box, they can, and if the dev agree's to go along with it, there is nothing anybody can do other than complain or boycott. If Epic signed a contract with PS for Fortnite, then its too bad. Maybe next time Epic will choose to do things differently, and maybe they won't.

Do I think its fair? Not really. Does that even matter? Not really, because life isn't fair from the second your born until the day you die. While there's nothing wrong with having civilized conversations and asking questions, when the answer your given is no, kicking and screaming is not going to get anybody anywhere, and sometimes you just gotta deal with it and move on.

Asking the real question. 

I will just play on PS4 and have cross play with PC players.win win.

In Previous generation PlayStation was begging for cross play with Xbox and Nintendo but this gen Xbox and Nintendo begging for cross play with PlayStation.its so funny but imo PlayStation doing the right thing here and they shouldn't feel pressure from some fanboys.playstation always supported cross play with PC but business wise not good to give your player base to your competition.just continue having cross play with PC,iOS,Android and everyone will be happy because 99% of players will be on that platform.

That's hardly the point. It's that Sony players want to continue playing with their account on the Switch while lying in bed or are on the go where ever they have Wifi. It's where Sony says: "NOPE. Not with Nintendo." 

They are doing the right thing by blocking a 3rd party account from being utilized on the Switch/X1? Accounts that might have only been use used on the PS4? That's the right thing, if Sony doesn't want to do Crossplay that's fine, like you said last gen they wanted to do it with the X360(never heard anything regarding with the Wii) but MS said no,but to block a 3rp party account,  from beign able to be use on Switch or X1 because it was use on a PS4,even if it was once just to see how the game worked on the system,is some major BS that I bet you and the Sony fans that are defending Sony would be the first to talk Shit on Ninty/MS if they did it.

Also Sony shouldn't feel pressured because some "fanboys" are complaing. Who do these fanboys support,Nintendo or Microsoft? Because I don't remember, and it might just be my bad memory, but I don't remember Greg Miller beign a  fanboy when it come to Nintendo/MS, or being famous for is pod cast regarding either company, and again maybe my memory is trash but wasn't he on stage last year at PSX?

Just because people are calling Sony on there shit doesn't mean they are fanboy,that could also be easily said to anyone defending Sony like you are, companies should get called out on there shit, because if they aren't then we shit like the PS3 and the X1.

mind blown, So because MS did it last gen it's okay? (also kinda a false equivalence given they're not entirely the same issues) lol No offense but that's some fanboy thinking, you're trying to deflect and point the finger to someone else. We're in a different era, MS has different leadership, what should be the focus is what's in the best interest for the gamers. This will literally benefit everyone, only reason to ever defend this (or any company in the wrong) is to score some imaginary points with them.

With that said, I don't think it's a major issue that needs riots in the streets but also don't defend this shit especially if you wouldn't have if the shoe was on the other foot.
